About the Author

Charles Derber is a distinguished sociologist and author whose work critically examines the intersections of power, inequality, and social change in contemporary America. With a career spanning decades at Brandeis University, Derber has become a leading voice on issues like corporate dominance, economic disparity, and the erosion of democratic ideals. His incisive analyses draw from extensive research and a deep commitment to social justice, challenging readers to confront the systemic forces shaping their world. In books such as Wilding of America, he explores the cultural and psychological dimensions of societal 'wilding'—the unleashing of violence and chaos in an increasingly fragmented society. Derber's writing bridges academia and public discourse, inspiring activism and informed debate on pressing global challenges.
